I've been looking for a way to have MC exit to the directory displayed in a panel. Currently, MC returns to the context, terminal or command prompt where it was started. I can imagine it would have to perform a Change-Directory program with the panel supplying the directory Path. Based on that it could be an exit menu choice. JSW
Generally the command line option "-P, --printwd=<file> Print last working directory to specified file" is utilised within a calling script, similar can be done under windows.</file>
ps. There is no clean method of a child process affecting the cwd of its parent
yet may consider adding an option to inject a 'cd' command back into the keyboard buffer on exit.
Update, keyboard buffer injection is not a portable option.
Only method is wrapper script and have mc export the cwd on exit.
